My Fellow Zimbabweans :::: Submitted by Johnathan Makonese, New York US

As we all know our beloved country and its peoples are caught in a very serious predicament. It almost seems that the opposition political parties, regional leaders, and international leaders can not help us in anyway. For those of us living abroad - we have not done much either to help. Instead many of us are being forced into situations no one could have ever imagined.

At this point it is very obvious that ONLY the LORD ALMIGHTY will see us through all the situations we are going through. With that in mind - we are calling for a Prayer/Fast for Zimbabwe. The first week of every even month of the calendar, i.e. February, April, June, etc. Let us all join together and ask of the LORD for a change. The main emphasis is for us as a nation to set time aside each of those days and seek God's favor. If you can manage to fast the whole period - PRAISE be to GOD. If you manage 3 or 4 days - that is still good. Whatever you can manage will make a difference - even if it means skipping 1 meal and saying a prayer for mercy that will be truly appreciated. Fasting can be whatever you decide - the Lord knows your heart. We are aware that there are many different types of fasts PLEASE just get involved.

Since there are thousands of us living in different time zones Zimbabwe will be praying as a Nation 24 hours a day for a full 7 days. As we fast during these weeks inspirational messages will be sent out from different church leaders.

PLEASE tell this message to as many Zimbabweans as you know. For those who do not have emails - please be sure to print it out for them.

Send more emails as the dates draw nearer.
